This is a good point, and I think what really made me start questioning Christianity and religion to begin with.

I asked questions such as, "Since the Bible is the only way of knowing about this Jesus, and you can't go to heaven if you don't accept him as your savior, what happens to people that have never heard of him?  People such as those who live in distant 3rd world countries... the Abariginies in the outback, small tribes in Africa?  And what about infants that die suddenly?  Children that never got a "chance" to go to church?  There are bound to be many that have never heard about him, due to one situation or another.  So, what, they get shortchanged because they didn't have the opportunity to read or learn of the Bible... this book, written by man?

The answer I always received to this question from the "believers" was that they were "exempt" from this little rule of accepting Jesus; as complete ignorance to Jesus, made it OK, and they would be pardoned and let into heaven, regardless of the "sins" they may have committed.  Those believers (who believe that homo sapiens and Neanderthals were around) say the same thing applied to them.

Well.  By that logic, couldn't you just guarantee everyone's entrance into heaven, if you just stopped spreading the word of Jesus?  If everyone became ignorant to Christianity, then everyone would be pardoned, right and saved, right?

It's a very good point to bring up, but I'm sure the diehard YEC's have some sort of sidestepping answer for it... of course, by using the Bible as their reference.
